What it's known for
Chase Field’s roof is the whole story in Phoenix. With summer afternoons regularly over 100°F, the roof and air conditioning are usually closed for games from late spring into September, then opened up on milder nights in April and the fall.
The ballpark’s signature quirk is the swimming pool beyond the right-center field fence. It’s a rentable suite rather than a public pool, but home runs do occasionally splash down in it, and it shows up on highlight reels every season.
Getting there
The park sits in downtown Phoenix, a short walk from Valley Metro Rail stops along Washington and Jefferson Streets, so many fans skip driving entirely. Downtown garages fill up on big nights, so give yourself extra time if you drive.
Tips for your visit
- If you’re visiting in summer, don’t worry about the heat inside: the roof is almost always closed and the building is cooled.
- Spring training is next door in a sense: many Cactus League parks are around the Phoenix area, which makes a March trip a good time to add Chase Field to your list.
- The upper deck is steep but cheap, and it’s a good way to see the size of the roof structure.
